I used to bowl duckpin at Rolling Road Fairlanes when I was a kid. That was a mixed house, half duck and half 10 pin. It's gone now. I have a 300 in 10 pin, high game in duckpin - 177. 🫤

As mentioned another Video Comment, My 2d Great Grandfather Wm Clarke (1812-1886) owned Clarke & Co. aka Clarke & King in the shadow of those guns at the Foot Of Henry St. (Ref: Baltimore City Directory 1865 pg 83). The Family lived just to the west on 36 Barre St off Light Street. I don't know what his politics where, but the gun in the photo could very well have fired on their home.

Thank you for your memory

Need to do North Point (later FtHoward) and the March up North point Rd.

My Great Aunt Eva worked for the United Railway & Electric Company in the early 1900s.

Wasn't there a restaurant caller The China Clipper downtown in the 60's or am I nuts?It had a blue neon motif.

I think there was a TV show in the early 50's that featured the Baltimore Zoo and the director "Watson."

Please add some content related to Northern Baltimore County...Hereford, Parkton etc...Prettyboy Reservoir was created soon after Loch Raven..the actual source of the Gunpowder being north of Hoffmanville..just a suggestion

My Mom and Dad bowled on a league at the Duck pin lanes in Dundalk, somewhere around Holabird Ave. I Bowled Duck Pins on a Saturday mornings league at the lanes in Edgemere.

I went aboard the SS John W Brown August 1998 she was in port Charleston, South Carolina. I was a Perry Officer 1st Class aboard the USS South Carolina (CGN-37). The So Car's last port call before she was Decommissioned just a few months later. Sadly being a Nuke ship they had to cut her up. One must be a sailor to understand the attachment one get to their ship. But is wonderful to know that some ships survive the and are not lost to time.

I seeing videos of my people

I read an article that said the 4th wasn't signed into law until 1941! Could that be?! Happy 4th!

beg your pardon, Greek fire was mentioned in Paul Doherty novels. And Guy Fawkes and Catsby blew up Protestant parliament but I do not know if King James 1 was their target.

there is not one mention of July 4th in Ireland.

if anyone is wondering what sking was like there I have a short video of me snowboarding there a few years back. didn't know you could find all those birds there. I've never seen any of them before in Maryland. I live in perry hall

Baltimore's *INDEPENDENCE DAY* Fireworks.

My Grandpa Clarke was a member of the Edgemere Lodge and Grandma was a Rebecka.

Those old fireworks displays at Memorial Stadium were austere compared to what we are accustomed to seeing today. However, back in those days, as kids, were happy to get to see live fireworks. (One shell at a time!)

Johns & Molly: Thanks for another informative video! When my wife & I lived near Baltimore in Laurel, we used to like to watch the Inner Harbor fireworks from the Locust Point area because it was much less crowded, parking was easier, and it was a quick exit afterwards with no traffic problems. Happy Independence Day!

Thanks, Johns.

Wonder how many of of those fireworks were made in Maryland? Need to look up the last fireworks factory in Cecil County that blew up.

Thank you brother big Hug from The 21666

I remember a few decades ago somebody got the idea of putting a Casino out there. Around that time the politicians were still debating the legalizing of Gambling in the state. It sounded like a good idea but was just another one that went away.

Fireworks at the harbor has been a family tradition for years. Love the history. Happy Independence Day!

Remember the retail store in later 60s early 70s. Made order then pickup was on ground floor loading dock area. Guessing tube system used to forward the paperwork. Doubt many products ever went through it due to size and weight.

2:40 Buick and Olds did not come out of GM. They later were acquired by GM. Originally started by David Dunbar Buick and Ramsom E. Olds as independent makers.

(July 4th 1828) As we head in to July 4th 2024 I would like to add this; On July 4th 1828 Charles Carroll of Carlton, the last living signer of the Declaration of Independence turned the first spade of dirty marking the first mile of the Baltimore and Ohio RR.

Imagine how much better sub saharan africa would be today if these educated africans had returned to spread knowledge in their original native homelands.

0:26 ... we *do not* celebrate July 4th..... we celebrate *_Independence Day._* Show some respect, please.

I visited this building when The Gateway School, my soon-to-be school was in it (Didn’t know if you knew Gateway, The Hearing and Speech Agency used the space for some time) I may have climbed those exact stairs Grant’s Great, Great Aunt did! The Gateway School moved to Northwest Baltimore in 2003 and has been there ever since.

A neighbour of ours had one or two on their house in PA. Havnt seen the house in almost 2 decades, so no idea if it’s still there. I saved away n collected a few off eBay a few years back. They will go on a walk in me apartment with the rain lamp n trains

I have some memorabilia from the old marble bar. Two spare Ampex gauges from the sound board and a chunk of marble that was in the back of the bar apparently removed from the bar years before. I gave the marble piece to my mother years ago she now uses it to roll out pie crust, although she knows where it came from and likes to tell the story that Fred Astaire may have danced on her piece of Baltimore history.

Interesting, do the Arabbers play any part to the rise of the Farmer's market's ?

Good remembers

U suck 😂😂

A&P! Haven't heard that name since 1970 or so. 8 o'clock coffee is burned into my memory. As for the markets, I've been on both sides as seller and buyer. 😊

I enjoy going to the Farmers Market under I-83.That was a place for me to get breakfast before going to work at the Prison on Sunday morning.I often shared my bounty with my Co-Workers,2 of them were my Sister & Brother-in-Law.(R.IP.).Great memories.

Well done episode the young lady Elena was lovely and professional.

Speaking of Horses, Sports and Maryland, what about a episode on the state sport of Maryland, Jousting. You could do it in the fall at the State Championships. Haven't seen a Joust in over 50 years.

A great video underscoring one of our most commnity-oriented activities/events.

My Uncle Finley was a Brick layer in the 50and part of the 60s. However he did most of his work in the mills at Sparrows Point. Each blast furnace had a Brick lining that had to be replace regularly. Lots of Baltimore brick. Also the B&O used red brick for many of their station platforms.

I went to many games in 1971 at Memorial Stadium. What a great team!

When white people stop hating. They’ve been hating black people for years, decades, centuries. Who hates that long, really ?

I was last there in 2002. As I commented in another video (The Baltimore Cemetery) , I have a family connection to the inner harbor. My 2d Great Grandfather owned a ship joining company (Clarke & Co.) at the foot of Henry St, the location of the present day park just behind you in the video.

I have a 2d Great Uncle, William Clarke is buried there. He died in 1906, he was appointed as the Chief Inspector of Electrical wiring for the City of Baltimore in 1902. He was in poor health and died of exultation in 1906 as a result of being over work during the reconstruction after the great fire of 1904. His Wife Margret Smyth also buried along side Wm was a Major play in the Woman's Suffrage movement. She was the secretary for the Baltimore Woman's Suffrage Association in 1896 and then for Woman's Suffrage Association of Maryland in 1901.
